R. D Laing's Glasgow (1975)
Dr. R. D. Laing :
Some terrible things happen
in The Name of Love.
Angie :
Well I love you Ronnie.
....Do you love me?
Dr. R. D. Laing :
....Love's a terrible burden
to inflict on someone.
Angie :
What's the matter?
Dr. R. D. Laing :
You know Syd's Mother died
'cause she loved him so much?
-- I don't think My Mother
would've died to Save Me...
She didn't even want anyone
to know she was pregnant --
Maybe she didn't want me...
Certainly don't remember
her ever kissing me, or
holding me or puttin'
her arms around me.
Our House was not
A Place of Love.
Angie :
...where was Your Dad?
Dr. R. D. Laing :
Doctors said it was 'overwork',
nowadays they'd call it
a Nervous Breakdown.
Angie :
So You were alone
with Your Mother..?
Dr. R. D. Laing :
I've been holding one
hand or another ever since.
[Father breathing rapidly]
Dr. R. D. Laing :
I've spent My Life
Listening to people
that no one else gives
a fuck about --
Angie :
You sound angry.
Dr. R. D. Laing :
I'm not angry,
I'm just tired,
I just need sleep...
I need to go away to
Glasgow to see Suzie;
She's still under
The Weather.
Angie :
I'll come with you.
Dr. R. D. Laing :
...Nah, I don't think that's
a good idea, she's
really not herself --
Angie :
Please.
Dr. R. D. Laing :
Oh, for fuck's sake,
it's not a family outin';
My Daughter's ill.
She just needs to spend
a bit of time with me.
Angie :
.....I didn't tell You
to leave them --
